Windows and glass doors are among the weakest points in your building envelope. If the glass breaks, your building will become unsafe for occupants and also disrupt business operations. 3M™ Safety and Security Window Films are engineered to minimize injury to people and protect property from a number of safety and security concerns including but not limited to:
- Natural disasters
- Seismic events
- Spontaneous glass breakage
- Bomb blasts
- Forced entry
3M™ Security Window Film has been shown to deter intruders for up to
2 minutes
3M™ Safety and Security Window Films are designed to hold the broken glass together while the attachment systems bonds the filmed glass to the frame, keeping it safely there in the event of breakage.
On average, businesses incur a total of $95 billion in losses each year from natural catastrophes*. Installing 3M™ Safety and Security Window Film along with the recommended 3M™ Attachment Systems will help to fortify your windows and glass doors against outside threats and minimize injuries and losses.
Protect People and Upgrade to Code Cost Effectively.
Building code may require that glass in certain hazardous locations, such as those near wet surfaces, doors, floors, ramps and stairs, meet safety glazing standards. 3M™ Safety and Security Window Films can help you quickly and easily meet safety glazing impact requirements at a fraction of the cost of replacing windows. **
